In this presentation, Paul introduces the topic of IoT and associated trends. His interest area lies in protecting the privacy of users of IoT devices.

2. INTRODUCTION:
• The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of
physical objects or "things" embedded with
electronics, software, sensors and connectivity
to enable it to achieve greater value and service
by exchanging data with the manufacturer,
operator and/or other connected devices.
• Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its
embedded computing system but is able to
interoperate within the existing Internet
infrastructure.

3. Contd…
• Typically, IoT is expected to offer advanced
connectivity of devices, systems, and services
that goes beyond machine-to-machine
communications (M2M) and covers a variety of
protocols, domains, and applications.
• The interconnection of these embedded devices
(including smart objects), is expected to usher in
automation in nearly all fields, while also
enabling advanced applications like a Smart
Grid.

4. Latest Trends:
• Initially internet connected over billion users to
the internet which is the first wave, next comes
the mobile internet which connected over 2
billion users to the internet. Now with the third
wave of the internet that is internet of things we
can connect 20 billion users to the internet.
• Current market examples include smart
thermostat systems and washer/dryers that
utilize Wifi for remote monitoring.

5. Contd…
• Connecting the things like CCTV cameras to
connecting heavy machinery. For example
connecting a car to the internet though which we
not only monitor , maintain our car we can add
an entertainment quotient to it.
• In manufacturing companies, many tools are
connected to automate an process which were
previously done manually.
• Things connected in the IoT, can refer to a wide
variety of devices

6. Area’s of Interest:
• The main disadvantage with the internet of
things is its fragile security and privacy. This is
stopping IoT from becoming the new third wave
of internet.
• Researchers have identified privacy challenges
faced by all stakeholders in IoT domain, from the
manufacturers and app developers to the
consumers themselves, and examined the
responsibility of each party in order to ensure
user privacy at all times.

7. Conclusion:
 Cyber attacks are likely to become an
increasingly physical (rather than simply virtual)
threat.
 If given internship I will be working on increasing
the security of each device connected in the
internet with out compromising the privacy of the
user.
